Joint agreements

We have formal agreements with our partners on how we will effectively regulate in partnership. Read about our Memoranda of understanding, Joint working protocols and Information sharing agreements.


  • Memorandum of understanding

    We have a number of different working agreements with other organisations. They outline our commitment to work collaboratively and to co-operate, and state the purpose of the commitment.

  • Joint working protocols

    Find out about our Joint working protocols and our work with other organisations in particular instances.

  • Information sharing agreements

    Information sharing agreements are very detailed documents that specify exactly what information will be shared, by whom, when and how. They are key to ensuring that CQC complies with data handling requirements and legislation.
